Your guide to all things Real Estate<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />

Pet havens in your home<br />

New Zealand has one of the highest<br />

pet ownership rates in the world, with<br />

approximately 64% of households<br />

owning a pet. Whether your pet is mostly<br />

indoors or spends time outside, set up<br />

your home so pets feel safe and happy.<br />

Cats<br />

Creating a cat-friendly home can<br />

include a purpose-built outdoor catio<br />

or specific small indoor spaces that<br />

appeal to cats. Catios are a fantastic way<br />

to ensure that cats can safely enjoy the<br />

outdoors while protecting our birds and<br />

wildlife. The structures can be added to<br />

your patio, deck or backyard with a cat<br />

door entrance through a window, wall or<br />

door. They can be purchased ready-to-go<br />

or constructed in various sizes and prices<br />

for your needs.<br />

Cats love to survey what is happening<br />

around them, so having a vertical<br />

platform up high is an easy way to<br />

keep your cat happy. Whether it is a cat<br />

tree, shelves or a cat bridge cat, these<br />

structures provide exercise for indoor<br />

cats and give a choice of spaces. Extra<br />

spaces are essential in a household with<br />

more than one cat. An easy solution is a<br />

bookcase or shelf near a window offering<br />

vertical space and a view outside.<br />

Avoid frustrating cat scratches on your<br />

furniture by placing horizontal, vertical,<br />

and inclined cat scratching posts in areas<br />

where your cats prefer being.<br />

Litter trays should be in a private, quiet<br />

area away from where cats eat and drink.<br />

Dogs<br />

Ensuring your dog is comfortable,<br />

relaxed and not barking, especially when<br />

you are not present, is vital for your<br />

peace of mind and maintaining a good<br />

relationship with your neighbours. Keep<br />

your dog safely contained and able to run<br />

around outside within secure fencing,<br />

with ready access to food, water, and<br />

shelter from the elements.<br />

Consider your flooring choice, as<br />

hardwood flooring can be difficult<br />

for dogs to walk on and may easily be<br />

damaged by their toenails. Instead, wood<br />

laminate, ceramic tiles and concrete are<br />

durable and easily cleaned, while rugs and<br />

dog beds provide comfort and warmth.<br />

Keep food and water bowls in a quiet<br />

area that can be easily cleaned,<br />

Personal spaces and crates for dogs,<br />

including under stairs, are a great idea<br />

for training and can reduce anxiety.<br />

Combining a console table and pet crate<br />

in one is a popular option. You can<br />

display items on top, out of the way of an<br />

exuberant dog or a wagging tail.<br />

Finally, having ramps or steps available<br />

is helpful for pets that are allowed a spot<br />

on a couch or bed<br />

and find climbing<br />

difficult. Our furry<br />

friends deserve to be<br />

comfortable and safe,<br />

so take the time to<br />

consider their needs<br />

and make your home<br />

a pet haven.<br />
